Well I think Ted Kennedy has bigger things to worry about right now (best of luck to him).
Jurevicius shouldn’t worry, Donte Stallworth is now on his 4th team in 4 years. He obviously isn’t very good.
Kubiak needs to wear a cowboy hat.

I just puked after seeing that red Canadian maple leaf behind the Bills logo. America is supposed to export its crap, not the good stuff. Sell the little countries our fake pop stars and force Walmarts on them… DON’T give the ingrates an NFL team!
I mean, its not like a Canadian team could put together a decent squad - the best players all have criminal records prohibiting travel to civilized countries! They’d be at a competitive disadvantage which would make negotiating new CBAs impossible. Look before you leap…

The Eagles have single game tickets available???? This is not a good sign. If they can’t sell out their stadium they’ll probably have to move to LA, where teams always sell out.

A couple of things…
1. “The Eagles signed three more draft picks” that won’t make the 53 man roster.
2. Even Ed Kennedy who has brain cancer (OK so he’s a Pat’s fan too but…) realizes that Arlen Specter (who only has Hodgkin’s lymphoma) needs to let Spygate go.
2.1 After I got sick to my stomach when I saw the new bills Canadian logo (As every American should) I thought maybe we need Arlen Specter to look into keeping American jobs and the NFL in the United States. And while we’re keeping him busy away from Spygate, maybe he can look to our failing infrastructure and economy.
…steps down from soapbox.

two things:
1) Even though I wish the best for Ed Kennedy, I must say….is it a surprise that a Senator for Mass thinks that spygate should be left alone?
2) samh…since the City helped finance LFF, they required (as they did with the lease at the Vet) that a certain number of seats not be sold as season tickets, to allow for more people (allegedly from the City) to have the opportunity to purchase single game seats. The irony is that by selling them on the internet…anyone, anywhere will buy those tickets.

If they are looking to save a few bucks, they could keep that second digit off of the Home team score. They sure didn’t need it last year.
